Loan Repayment


When you graduate or your enrollment status is less than half-time, if you have taken out any student loans, you are required to have an Exit Counseling session with The University Bursar (UB) at S-113 Criser. Exit Counseling is conducted through Studentaid.gov.

Educational loans awarded by UF (Federal Perkins Loans and UF Institutional Loans, such as SAFE Loans) may be repaid in equal or graduated installments. The minimum monthly repayment for Federal Perkins Loans is $40. The university may require a minimum repayment for institutional loans of $30 a month.
